It is a tight fit to adjust the rear shock on the drivers side. Has anyone bent the fuel vent lines out of the way a little bit, or done anything to make it easier to reach? I am running Tein RS and am continually adjusting them trying to find that absolutely perfect setup. I am lucky because the adjuster accepts the allen tool, but also has a knurled end so you can use your fingers to make adjustments. I have larger hands, and it is very difficult to get in there. I specd out some parts (long allen key and knurled knob on McMaster Carr) to make a longer adjuster. Was just wondering if people have bent the vent lines at all. In their current position, you cannot put an allen key into the adjuster.

 

i have an adjuster extender that pokes through the trunk carpet. trying to find a picture of it for you.

 

That was my original idea! I had something nice on my Subaru. Tokico made extenders for the Mazda RX-8, and I used them on the rear of my Subaru.

 

I will not bend the fuel lines…I had the same issue with my KW-V3 it is a pain to adjust even with the smallest Allen wrench it was impossible to get in there.
I made my own wrench; Take the Allen wrench and cut it with a bolt cutter in half or appropriate length to fit in the area, take a small screw driver (glasses screwdrivers) heated up the metal part and pull it out, heat up the Allen wrench and insert it in the plastic part of the screwdriver.
I just leave it in all the time, and use a regular Allen wrench for the other shocks.

 

I was going to use this http://www.mcmaster.com/#cad-2d/6332k32/=8uze5s

and also buy a 6 in allen, then I could cut it down to whatever size I needed. I was only going to try to slightly bend a vent line, not the actual fuel line.

 

an2ny, good idea! I cut down an allen key to an "L" about 1/2" x 1/4", wrapped the 1/4" end with a bit of duct tape, and inserted the other end into my KW V3. Keep it there permanently, but it's a bit clunky to adjust (even without my soft top) as it still hits the fuel line boot. I do have very big hands, though. I'm gonna try your tool fab idea...
